There are problems associated with only certain series of CPUs or maybe certain series of drivers supplied for a certain printer. You never know. That way it is possible to see if people with CPU X have a tendency to have more problems and people with CPU Y have a tendency to have another problem. etc. If you have ever used bugzilla, you will find that the talkbacks are good contributors. If 10 people are crashing, it can be used to find a common factor of those 10 people using various data. But the most important point is that it's optional. If you don't want to use it, don't!
